PartyPoker.com Millionaire - Mike Schneider
Mike Schneider beats short stacked Kenna James to win the $1m
top prize in the PartyPoker.com Million V.
James survived one all in on the previous hand. He was holding
83 and was all in on the big blind. He hit a 3 on the river
to survive. The following hand James raised with his remaining
$120,000 in chips holding J6, and was called by Schneider who
showed Q10. Mike hit a queen on the flop and there was no help
from the turn or river. Kenna James will collect $700,000 for
second place.

Mike Schneider’s buddies from the University of Minnesota,
who had been supporting him throughout the tournament, erupted
into cheers as the 22 year-old went up on to stage to collect
his $1,000,000 from Claudia diFolco and Mike Sexton.
